My Mute Bride Chapter 222

Chapter 222 A Dream About the Past

Somerset Mountain was a poor and remote mountainous area. Few people really lived on the mountain except for a gang of human traffickers, so Rachel hadn’t had any friends since she was little.

Then, she met Justin, who was abducted and trafficked to Somerset Mountain. The days since then had been one of the few times in her childhood that she felt truly happy in the company of someone around her age.

“My home is on fire, Justin! I have to go back!” “You mustn’t go back, Katie!” “You should leave first, Justin.”

“My mom is still inside!”

The teenage boy covered little Rachel’s mouth, and he wouldn’t let go of her no matter how she cried and shouted. He kept waiting until the man with a scar on the corner of his eye left, whereas Rachel cried so hard that she nearly passed out.

However, the fire was too big. Before the two kids could run down the mountain slope, the thatched cottage collapsed in an instant, turning the courtyard into a sea of flames as the fire kept spreading toward the peak of the mountain.

“Run, Katie! Run!”

“Mommy! Mommy!”

When Rachel suddenly heard a child’s voice, she woke up from her nightmare in a daze and noticed the tiny figure standing beside her bed. Her eyelids felt so heavy that she could hardly open her eyes, and her voice was very weak. “Why are you here, Samuel?”
